Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

WIC provides federal grants to states for the purpose of serving nutritionally at-risk, low-income pregnant and postpartum women and their children up to five years of age. WIC programs provide highly nutritious foods, nutrition education and counseling, and screening and referral to needed services. To be eligible, women and children must meet income guidelines established by each state, and a health professional must determine they are at "nutritional risk." Women and children who participate in Medicaid, the Food Stamp program, or the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families program are automatically income eligible for WIC. This man would not be eligible for WIC assistance himself because this program is for women and children.
